Song Books

These two song books were published for Shan and I to use when we have been teaching songs from the Baring-Gould collection at workshops. Both books include notes about the songs.

‘Come and I Will Sing You’ includes songs on a wide range of topics, many of which we have included in our repertoire over the years.

‘Jack in his Element’ is a collection of the sea songs heard by Baring-Gould in Devon and Cornwall.

As with all the material on this site they may be used freely with appropriate acknowledgement to the original sources.
